"With the brief hiatus of T In The Park this year, Edinburgh was missing festival options . Spring Fest will offer something totally unique and completely new. Corn Exchange Edinburgh is right in the city centre , with convenient & easy travel and hotel options . We aim to bring a truly special festival experience with Spring Fest"
Spring Fest ticket demand will be high and a sell-out is on the cards. Another huge benefit of Spring Fest is enjoyment cannot be ruined by the weather as it is an indoor event.
